I've already spoken with the new owner personally...the Yenko letters from the building as well as any promotional materials like plate frames and stuff like that have all been retained by the former owner as part of the deal. The name apparently meant quite a bit to him as well.

You might say that. He was with Don for years, Raced with him and helped design the 81 Yenko Turbo Z's.. I say they knew each other. One year one the way to the sYc reunion wew stopped at Yenko Honda to show Kim Mason what we and the crew were taking to the reunion. To say we shut the place down for a while is an understatment...BKH
